I'm a multi-disciplinary designer with 10 years of experience primarily working as a visual designer. Design has the power to help solve complex problems through human-centered and participatory design methods. As a patient myself, I experienced the many sides of healthcare and wanted to find a way to use the skills I had to help improve the system, leading me to the Design for Health program. From the very beginning, I have had an interest and passion for narrative. Storytelling has the power to highlight, and uplift the voices of those who are most impacted by complex issues. As a designer, I have found it both inspiring and fulfilling to develop solutions grounded in those voices. The complexity of many of life's most wicked problems cannot be solved in silos, but rather through collective action.
